Lyrics
Roman script
Bandhu gáo gáo gáo madhugiiti
Tandrá bheuṋge dio
Bandhu cáo cáo cáo niravadhi
Ogo priya ati priya
Áji práńer jaŕimá ket́e geche
Maner suśamá bhare geche
(Áj) Tomár chande madhuniśyande
Ámáke nútan kare nio
(Áj) Alakár srote álokanipát́e
Lokátiita bháve bhare dio
Bengali script
বন্ধু গাও গাও গাও মধুগীতি
তন্দ্রা ভেঙ্গে' দিও
বন্ধু চাও চাও চাও নিরবধি
ওগো প্রিয় অতি প্রিয়
আজি প্রাণের জড়িমা কেটে' গেছে
মনের সুষমা ভরে' গেছে
(আজ) তোমার ছন্দে মধুনিষ্যন্দে
আমাকে নূতন করে' নিও
(আজ) অলকার স্রোতে আলোকনিপাটে
লোকাতীত ভাবে ভরে' দিও
Translation
Abiding Friend, Your ambrosial song please sing;
Kindly shatter my deep sleep.
Abiding Friend, gaze at me incessantly,
Oh my beloved, my dearest dear.
Today, severed is life's lethargy;
Mind's exquisite beauty filled its place.
Now, by Your whim, with cascade of honey,
Kindly take and remake me.
Now, in seamless light, in heaven's stream,
Pack me with transcendent feeling.
Purport
This is how Sarkar himself described the meaning of the song—[4]
Paramapuruśa is the greatest friend. The degree of bondage is greatest in crude matter where consciousness is dormant. So, oh Lord, please sing Your blissful songs and rouse me from this slumber of staticity. Let me proceed towards Your effulgence. Let the supramental waves elevate this entire material world to the Supreme Stratum, and let me rise above this material world and come in close contact with You. I want this blessing from You, my Supreme Guide, my Paramapuruśa.
